Because I am angry that I can't look forward to new games because the industry is going in directions that are totally opposite of the things that I like or the directions I think they should be advancing in. Every new game that I've played in the last few years has greatly disappointed me in terms of recycling the same things over and over again and being technologically stuck 5 years ago. It feels like things are going backward and people are settling for less than what things should be.
I should be excited for Starcraft 2 but BattleNet 2.0 leaves much to be desired and tempers my enthusiasm for the parts of the game that I value which are custom maps (which now are 1MB restricted, must be hosted on Blizzard servers, only one version with one name can exist at once, there is no lobby/chat system to organize custom games, etc).
I wanted to love Fallout 3 but they were terribly disappointing, just Oblivion with guns and the Gamebyro engine looks horrible with the color palatte and texture style of Fallout. Fails to live up to the originals in every way.
